Hello Owen;

its better to explicitly call System.gc() in WO App's. Whats the rule of thumb here in terms of how often, is there a better spot than others etc etc ?

It is only ever a hint, never a demand. I have resorted to this infrequently.

That's correct, but I think the problem arises that if it does decide to do a full-on garbage collect then it has a tendency to freeze all of the threads for a bit while it does it. This can lead to jittery responses from the application.

Are you actually getting "OutOfMemoryException"-s logged?

cheers.
